What's the difference between sputter and sputtering?

Sputter


Definition:

  • (v. i.) To spit, or to emit saliva from the mouth in small, scattered portions, as in rapid speaking.
  • (v. i.) To utter words hastily and indistinctly; to speak so rapidly as to emit saliva.
  • (v. i.) To throw out anything, as little jets of steam, with a noise like that made by one sputtering.
  • (v. t.) To spit out hastily by quick, successive efforts, with a spluttering sound; to utter hastily and confusedly, without control over the organs of speech.
  • (n.) Moist matter thrown out in small detached particles; also, confused and hasty speech.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) All tooth specimens were sputter-coated with gold for 4 min and examined using a scanning electron microscope.
  • (2) And the Sunni-Shia conflict driving so much of this is not unlike the Wars of the Reformation– those took a century to conclude ... and still sputter along in Northern Island three centuries later.
  • (3) Auger spectroscopy and ion sputtering technique have shown that in surface of new archs oxygen and carbon are present up to about 300 A depth.
  • (4) The teeth were air dried, mounted on stubs, sputter-coated with gold-palladium and examined under SEM.
  • (5) Electronegative elements will be detected with similar sensitivities in the spectrum of negative sputtered ions, but inert gases, which are ionized with difficulty and have small electron affinities, will be detected with considerably poorer sensitivities.
  • (6) It is based on the selective evanescent field excitation of ligands adsorbed to supported planar bilayers on argon-sputtered glass plates.

  • (12) Images of DNA and ribosomal subunits contrasted by sputter shadowing with tungsten are shown.
  • (13) Several substrates--aluminum mnium foil, silver mirror deposit and sputtered gold-provided good conductive backgrounds for chromosomal spreads.
